Jayr POV - Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken Universe, Central World, Magic Continent, Great Jura Forest, Tempest - 2013 AMB
Forty-five days have passed since the day I peered into the future to find out when the Champion of Power was going to start his invasion of this universe, and where I found out that the threat was much bigger than any of us initially expected, and now, the time is quickly running out, as tomorrow is the day.
Needless to say, these forty-five days were quite hectic for everyone involved.
The first thing we did the next day, after I informed everyone, was to contact all our allies to warn them about the time of the attack and inform them about what we were likely going to face.
Obviously, the news of four more entities almost comparable to Unicron in power and with an even larger number brought quite a bit of anxiety, fear, and even outright panic among the weaker factions of this world, especially when they learned about just how nasty and difficult to confront these entities are.
However, we were able to quickly rein in their fear thanks to the help of the stronger factions and leaders, like the Demon Lords, Granbell Rosso, Rudra Nam Ul Nasca, Yuuki Kagurazaka, and many others.
After contacting and informing our allies, I quickly helped Rimuru free his first friend in this world, the Storm Dragon, Veldora Tempest, from the Infinity Prison, gaining yet another very powerful ally.
Then I left all the other matters in the hands of Nikita, Zandeer, Nellika, Jouichi, Aletha, and Rimuru and mostly focused on creating and reinforcing an utterly massive Battle Universe for the next forty-five days.
The end result is a literally infinite universe completely filled with mega galaxies in a very clear way, with a backdrop of countless jewel-like stars, like a painting of surrealism.
A hyperspace that exists between the membranes of the 10th and 11th dimensions as an oscillating space-time, with a different set of dimensional axes, corresponding to a 12-dimensional reality; a universe that is created, occupied, and fully controlled by me according to my every whim, because its whole existence is tied with my own.
Because of this, it is extremely stable to the point that even if several Tengen Toppa Gunmen unleash all their power at one point, they won't be able to break through the fabric of space and successfully escape.
In fact, pretty much anyone will find out that even trying forcefully to destroy the whole universe or causing it to collapse is going to be an exceptionally hard feat because of the sheer amount of constant effort I used to reinforce every single particle of the Battle Universe.
Of course, this doesn't mean it is completely impossible to succeed, but as long as my will remains firm enough, then even if the Battle Universe is damaged, it will be able to easily fix itself in no time.
Actually, I think that I ended up creating a permanent Battle Universe that is completely tied to my being and will, which means that this specific Battle Universe will continue to exist as long as I exist, and that from now on, I can make use of it whenever I desire in a single instant without worrying about preparing it beforehand.
Objectively, I have to admit that I've created something absolutely obscene and absurd out of sheer determination to keep my enemies contained.
Even the Voice of the World itself seems to agree, as it has announced that my Unique Skill Battle Universe has evolved into the Ultimate Skill Solomon, the Lord of the Universe.
(AN: Finding a fitting name for the new Ultimate Skill was truly a chore. As usual, I wanted to follow the rules of the current Universe, and because of that, the new Ultimate Skill should have a name connected to a mythological figure that also has a connection with what the skill does, in this case, protect other people and contain a dangerous entity. I couldn't use any Greek name because, in the end, Jayr can be considered part of the Greek Pantheon, so it would be awkward. For the same reason, the other Pantheons that have fitting Deties or Mythological Figures are also out. In the end, I opted for Solomon, mostly because of the legendary Seal of Solomon, which kinda fits the theme.)
Something that further refined the Battle Universe to the point that it can be almost considered a "living" universe, as it has developed a faint ego.
This is the first time ever since I've ascended into Godhood that I've done something without sparing any effort and pushing my powers to the absolute limits, and the end result surprised even me quite a bit.
Naturally, I didn't just focus on creating the Battle Universe that eventually evolved into Solomon, the Lord of the Universe.
Another very important thing I did was to make sure to corrupt and twist the time stream as much as possible without outright breaking it apart.
The reason for that is to prevent our enemies from peering into the future to find out our plans and strategies, prepare for them, and even use them against us.
In fact, the current state of the time stream of the Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken Universe is so messed up that the use of any type of Time Manipulation is categorically deadly.
If someone is so foolish as to try using some kind of Time Manipulation ability or technology anyway, their minds, bodies, or souls may end up ripped apart, aged and deaged, wither, come undone, and many other nasty time-based after effects.
And even if they survive, they may very well find themselves at the beginning or at the end of this entire multiverse, or simply lose themselves in the time stream and so on.
Basically, I made sure that using any kind of Time Manipulation is a completely deadly hazard for those daring to travel across time and an utter nightmare for those trying to peer into the future, as the time stream is so messed up that if one isn't strong enough, it may end up mad, and those capable of doing it wouldn't be able to discern anything from it.
The only reason I dared to mess up the time stream so much is that, thanks to the Seed of Culture, I basically have the original blueprint of this whole multiverse, so I can easily fix it back to the original state with little to no effort.
One last thing I did to prepare for this war, this time using my Digimon Incarnation and taking full advantage of Unigate of the other still active Champions in my group, Aletha and Zandeer, to travel the Omniverse and search for a few more people to convince them to join us in fighting this multiversal threat before it becomes too big for everyone else, dooming the whole Omniverse to complete destruction at the hands of Unicron and those who serve the mechanical god.
Luckily, before moving, I seriously thought about all the possibilities until I already had an idea of who to invite and how to convince them to take part in this war that doesn't currently involve them personally, and thanks to that, I was pretty successful and didn't waste the two chances offered by Zandeer and Aletha's Unigates.
At the moment, we are all standing just outside the city of Tempest, waiting for our allies to arrive and organize in preparation for tomorrow's war in an area cleared beforehand by Rimuru and me to allow enough space for them to settle down.
Soon, I receive a signal from one of the groups we are waiting for, and without wasting any time, I connect to the Seed of Culture and open a massive gate in front of us that connects to the universe of the group who just contacted me.
For a moment, nothing happens, but soon I smirk as a very familiar figure of the spaceship form of Bidi that resembles a cross between an old-fashioned galleon and a Dai-Gun battleship, colored in the light brown that reminds me of the usual ship's color, and in a light sand color emerges in all her glory from the swirling gate.
Soon the Athena's God Bidoof fully emerges from the portal and softly lands on the ground before the main hatch opens, and from it, my wives, Saori, Tio, and Alvida step out.
Following right after them, I see the Gemini Gold Saint Kanon, the Leo Gold Saint Aiolia, his brother, the Sagittarius Gold Saint Aiolos, my brother-in-law, the Scorpio Gold Saint Milo, the Libra Gold Saint Dohko, and the commander of the Specters under Eri, Shion.
Right behind them, I see my friends, Seiya, Shiryu, Hyoga, Shun, Ikki, and Orphèe, all of them carrying the Pandora Box containing their Cloths on their backs.
Then I see the huge figure of Cassios, donning his black Steel Cloth, and walking beside him are Sho, donning his Sky Steel Cloth, Daichi, donning the Land Steel Cloth, and Ushio, donning the Marine Steel Cloth, as they lead the Steel Saint army following after them.
The Steel Saints are the Sanctuary Soldiers whose power comes from a combination of both their artificial cloths and unmastered Cosmos.
These simplified, mass-produced versions of the Steel Cloths are all identical in design, only differing by colors and minor gender-based details.
Although they allow a normal human to enter battle alongside genuine Saints, they are significantly weaker than the original Steel Cloths.
Due to this, they typically serve as infantry roles to aid Saints in battle, unable to defeat an opponent themselves.
Right after the Steel Saint Army, I see all 108 Specters of the Underworld walking out, all of them donning their dark Surplices and following after them countless undead creatures of various shapes, sizes, and forms.
But this isn't over yet as after the last of forces under Eri's control come out from the Athena's God Bidoof, Bidi herself, or at least her human form avatar walks out followed by her personal force, the Bidi Brigate, a mechanized brigade composed of Dragon Cyborg Digimon who grew up under my Digimon Partners and Bidi's influnce and swore to protect, our family, the Village of Beginnings and the other peaceful Digimon living in my Soulbound Territoty from any threat.
The infantry of the Bidi Brigade is primarily made up of Commandramon, an Agumon-like Digimon whose body is primarily bluish-grey, with a camouflage pattern resembling digital pixel art.
All the Commandramon wear a helmet that is styled like a military Stahlhelm, further reinforcing the militaristic theme.
They are equipped with advanced protective gear, which appears to be a mix of metallic armor plating and a tactical vest.
Noteworthy features include articulated limbs, sharp claws on their feet and hands, and they are also equipped with a black assault rifle.
(Image Here - Commandramon)
Walking among the numerous Commandramon, there are the Adult Level Digimon that make up the Heavy Infantry Soldier of the Bidi Brigate, the Hi-Commandramon.
A bipedal, reptilian Greymon-like Digimon that exhibits a blend of organic and mechanical elements, giving it a cyborg-like appearance.
The Digimon's head is predominantly dark red, helmet-like, with a prominent black horn.
They have yellow, reptilian eyes, visible under the helmet's visor, flame-like hair of a bright yellow-orange that can be seen from the back of the head.
The body is covered in dark teal, armored plating. This armor displays a pixelated, camouflage pattern in shades of blue and white.
The Digimon's legs and tail also possess the same armored plating and camouflage pattern, while sharp, metallic claws adorn their feet.
The Digimon is heavily armed; in one hand, they hold a large, bulky automatic weapon resembling a grenade launcher, grey and metallic in appearance.
The other hand holds a large, dark grey shield with a yellow triangular pattern.
Further small details like rivets, bolts, and ammunition pouches on the shoulder pads add to the cyborg feel.

Then I also notice the faint presence of the Assassination Specialist of the Bidi Brigate, the Adult Level Digimon Sealsdramon, who looks like a biomechanical creature that strongly resembles a dinosaur, particularly a type of lizard or theropod.
Their bodies are predominantly dark teal, heavily armored with metallic plating.
The armor is detailed with numerous rivets, screws, and panel lines, giving it a highly technological and somewhat gritty appearance.
Traces of red are visible on its armor, particularly around the joints and on a prominent section near its knee.
These Digimon are bipedal, with powerful legs ending in sharp, metallic protrusions that look almost like drill bits or spikes.
Their arms are proportionally muscular and end in clawed hands, perfectly formed for grasping and combat.
They all carry two slender, curved blades, reminiscent of ninja weapons, held firmly in their hands.
Attached to their back are two longer, sharper blades shaped like scimitars, adding to their formidable appearance.
Their head is unique, with a helmet-like structure that covers their face, leaving only a small area visible around their eyes, which are represented by two small white circles with a suggestion of a red light within.
A sharp crest rises from the back of its head. A long, segmented tail extends behind it to show its elite status.

Shortly after looking at them, I focus my attention on the much rarer and much stronger Perfect Level Digimon, starting with the Digimon who are considered the Riot Suppressor and Extermination Specialist, Tankdramon.
They are a hybrid of a dragon or a dinosaur and a heavily armed military tank.
These Digimon have the muscular upper body of a humanoid beast, complete with blue skin, sharp teeth, and a mechanical helmet shaped like a snarling dragon's head.
When they open their mouth, they reveal sharp fangs, giving these Digimon an aggressive, war-ready expression.
The lower half of their bodies is that of a tank base with thick armor plating, treads for movement, and several mounted weapons.
Two large cannons protrude from its back, with additional smaller guns and missile pods visible, reinforcing its identity as a combat machine.
Metal claws extend from their arms and chest, each tipped with razor-sharp spikes.
The armored plating features dark greens and browns typical of military camouflage, while some parts have a steel-gray metallic finish.
There's also a red warning stripe on their shoulder, adding a touch of tactical design.

The other Perfect Level Digimon present are those specialized in Troop Transport, the Cargodramon, a Digimon that fuses the body of a mechanical dragon with components of an aircraft.
Their head resemble a dragon skull made of metallic armor plating, with glowing yellow eyes and sharp, jagged teeth, while pipes and cables protrude from their jaw area, further emphasizing their cybernetic state.
Their torso features mechanical ribs and vents, evoking both an industrial aesthetic and a skeletal structure with yellow and black caution stripes that are visible on the body, adding to the military-industrial feel.
On the side, there's a mounted cannon or rotary gun, clearly a weaponized attachment, along with what appear to be small, clawed limbs or appendages near the front.
Two massive propellers are mounted on either side of the body, with the wings replacing what would traditionally be the Digimon's arms.
The blades are extremely sharp, marked with red and white stripes for high visibility.
The tail is formed from the extended body of the aircraft, including rudders and jet engine-like parts, completing the vehicle-dragon hybrid design.

In the end, I fully focus on the only two Ultimate Level Digimon who are standing close to Bidi's avatar to protect her.
One of them is considered the Commanding Attack Aircraft, basically the one who commands all the troops during a battle, Brigadramon.
Brigadramon is a fusion of a humanoid figure and advanced mechanical armor that strongly resembles a Digimon of the Wargraymon species.
It resembles a humanoid wrapped in a high-tech, blue-colored exosuit or mech armor whose design is sleek, with segmented plating that enhances mobility and protection.
The head is equipped with a helmet that has a sharp, aerodynamic design and a bright orange visor. A magenta tuff of hair juts out from the back of the helmet, adding a touch of organic flair to the otherwise mechanical look.
The right arm is holding a long-barreled rotary cannon, akin to a Gatling gun, suggesting heavy and powerful firepower, while the left arm appears ready for action, with its armored claw.
The legs are powerful and digitigrade, with mechanical joints and large, claw-like feet that enhance a beastly appearance while implying speed and strength.
Mounted on the back is a propulsion unit with wing-like structures and yellow-highlighted vents, indicating flight capability.
Lastly, a long, segmented mechanical tail extends from the lower back, possibly for balance or as an additional weapon.
The armor that covers most of its body is predominantly deep blue with bright yellow highlights and black mechanical components, giving it a sharp, high-tech appearance.

The other Ultimate Level Digimon is the one who is considered the Weapon of Last Resort of the Bidi Brigade, Darkdramon.
Darkdramon is a bipedal, humanoid, mechanical-looking Digimon that, just like all the members of its evolution line, has elements of a dragon or dinosaur.
The armor that covers most of its body is dark blue with a yellow accent on the chest, arms, and legs.
Its head has a dragon-like shape with big, glowing, yellow eyes and a big transparent V-shaped visor on it.
From the back of Darkdramon's head, a crimson mane of spiky hair can be seen that once again reminds me of the iconic Wargraymon species.
Huge, curved, silver horns can be seen attached to the chest and waist part of its armor, whose true function is basically the same as the Minovsky Drive System of the V2 Gundam, which allows the Digimon to fly without the use of conventional rocket thrusters and achieve incredible speeds; those horns can even generate similar "Wings of Light".
On its left arm, Darkdramon is equipped with a large lance named Gigastick Lance, whose power rivals Dukemon's holy lance, Gram.
Overall, Darkdramon exudes a combination of strength, menace, and advanced technology, blending dragon-like ferocity with cybernetic enhancements, making it truly a frightening force for any opponent unlucky enough to become its target.

While Rimuru and the others are admiring the forces brought by my wives, especially Rimuru who is obviously geeking out at the presence of Seiya and the others, I quickly move in front of Saori, Tio, and Alvida, greeting them with a warm hug and a soft kiss before focusing my attention on my friends and fellow Saintand thanking them for coming in this universe to fight by my side once more.
On their part, they all reply that a Saint never fights alone and that it is their honor and duty to fight by my side against such a dark and destructive entity.
As the Saints, the Specters, the Undead creatures, and the Digimon started to organize, I once again recieve a signal from one of the other groups we are waiting for and without wasting any time, I connect to the Seed of Culture again and open another massive gate in front of us that connects to the universe of the group who just contacted me.
The next moment, a lot of people start to emerge from the portal, and the one leading them is a young man with black hair, brown eyes, and a tall, muscular body.
Walking right next to him lewdly holding his hand are a vampire loli with wavy golden blonde hair, crimson red eyes, and a porcelain complexion and the appearance of a 12-year-old child and a beautiful young woman with waist-length black hair that is tied back in a half ponytail by a dark-colored bow with big bangs hanging on the right side while there are small bangs hanging on the left side and brown eyes.
Then hanging on his back, there is a Rabbitman girl with blue eyes and light blue hair, which is unique for her race and clan. She's very attractive and beautiful, boasting a large chest and a gallant figure, and of course, as a rabbitman, she has white rabbit ears atop her head.
They are followed by a beautiful woman with waist-length black hair that is usually tied up in a ponytail with bangs hanging over her forehead and red eyes; she has a trained yet curvy body.
Those are, of course, Hajime, my fellow Men of Culture, who shed his chunni appearance using Metamorphosis Magic, and his happy harem, Yue, Kaori, Shea, and Shizuku.
His other wife, Reima, and all their children obviously remained in their home universe after all, they aren't fighters.
Right behind them, there are another 9 people, leading them is a young man who has gentle, feminine features and a long, slender build. He wears black-rimmed glasses and has shoulder-length black hair tied up in a ponytail.
Beside him, there is a beautiful girl with long blonde, almost golden, hair, sky blue eyes, and a mischievous grin on her face.
Those are Oscar Orcus and Miladi Reisen, the de facto leaders of what remains of the Liberators.
Right behind them, there are other familiar faces, the other Liberators of the Arifureta Universe.
A tall young man in his 20's with a well-toned physique, he has pointed ears, swarthy red skin, and red eyes, clear traits of the Demon Race but unlike most demons, his hair is sky blue, braided on one side, but falls over his right eye in bangs, together with a woman with dark red skin and pointed ears, she has long red hair with black streaks, with a muscular build, they are Vandre and Margaretta Schnee.
A beautiful woman in her early 20s with wavy emerald-green hair and narrow jade-red eyes, with a slender body along with very voluptuous breasts, and due to her Dagon heritage, she has fin-shaped ears, who tries to keep her distance from a clingy, beautiful, young elf woman in her mid-20s with long green hair, iconic long pointy ears, jade-green eyes, and light pink lips, those are Meiru Melusine and Lyutillis Altina.
The next familiar face is of a red-haired, black-skinned, slightly pointed-eared man with golden eyes from the Demon race; of course, he is my friend, Freid Bagwa.
Right behind Freid, a mix of countless monsters and warriors of various races emerge from the portal before they calmly take their position some distance away from Freid, waiting for his orders.
These monsters were all created and enhanced by Freid and the other users of the Ancient Magic of the Age of Gods, specifically to fight this battle against the forces of the Champion of Power.
Meanwhile, the warriors are all soldiers who voluntarily choose to come here to our aid, who out of a sense of duty, who are seeking glory, who simply choose to fight for what they believe is right... And those who are out of faith and loyalty in their God who saved them from the previous Evil God and helped build a better and more peaceful world, Jayceon, the God of Healing and Justice, basically, I.
Talking about those who choose to fight out of faith and loyalty in their God, I immediately focus on a huge group that literally flies out of the portal wth their angelic wings and whose numbers are easily over 9000, the Apostles.
A race of artificial beings from Tortus that were created by the pseudo-god Ehit and now my most devout followers in the Arifureta Universe after I freed them, gave them a new purpose, and allowed them to become a true living race instead of an artificial one.
Leading them is Hearst, a very beautiful woman with long silver hair and blue eyes, with a monotonic expression on her immaculate face. She wears a combat outfit which consists of a white sleeveless dress which has metal plates covering both sides of her waist, as well as a winged helmet on her head, gauntlets on her arms, and graves over her legs.
The Apostles quickly land in front of me and kneel down ready to follow my command and obliterate my enemies.
